Dak vs. Wentz

[Verdict]

The longer Dak and Wentz’ careers “season and marinate” the more Dak looks like a better player than Wentz.


It looks like the Eagles may have kept the wrongful QB as well.

Shhh! Don’t wake the children!

 

[Joe Realist]

Wentz is a good QB. His only issue, is whether or not, he remains healthy.

Define good.

Wentz is a good QB. His only issue, is whether or not, he remains healthy.

 

[Nav22]

Wentz is better at needing excuses for why he underperforms and comes up short. This ginger dork is 7-9 since last season. His BACKUP went 4-1 with a playoff win last season.

Wentz also went 7-9 as a rookie. So 2017 is the only year in Wentz’s career that he wasn’t an overrated loser, and that year ended with a huge injury.

Dak is better at football.

Wentz lovers on here won't like it.

To be fair, Dak's play was pretty bad last year before we got Cooper. The fact that both Jeffrey and Jackson are injured should probably be factored into Wentz having 61.3 and 94.6 ratings the last two weeks after a 121 the first week, when Jackson and Jeffrey were healthy.

This is another one of those threads when too much of the blame is placed on the quarterback. Usually, we save that kind of thing for our own, though.

The Eagles have lost, but it is not because of Wentz. Vs ATL his offensive line tried their best to get him killed, vs DET his backup receivers literally dropped 6 passes. Ginger boy's not the problem.

Wouldnt be shocked if Foles rotates back the Philadelphia at some point in Minshew proves to be legit

He has struggled in clutch situations since last year. Right now I think thats his real killer in terms of being considered a top QB. Last season the stats were par with his MVP caliber season, but he couldnt win

Fortunately, we do appear to have one of those of our own. The story on both these guys, how their careers are going to turn out, are still being written so I don't get into the whole "Dak v. Wentz," "Zeke vs. Saquon" thing that seems to feed some's fire. However, I have a compulsion to correct when someone is being judged unfairly.

I do admit to being too harsh on Dak last year around this time, though, not realizing how bad our receiver corps was until seeing how things changed when we got Cooper. (I also think the change in offensive line coach had a bigger impact than many of us realize.)

I always stay out of this debate.

Dak is playing great. Thrilled with his growth and play.

To be fair, I suspect if you drop Wentz into this group--Zeke, Cooper, Gallup, Cobb, the O-line…..he would do very well too.

Because his "MVP" caliber season wasn't very good. 62 completion percentage is not MVP.

But everyone said that the Eagles had better weapons, a better Oline and an elite QB?

Can't take all of that back now...

 

[TheRomoSexual]

Wentz is a talent. This board often overrates players on other teams with raw talent.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

No matter what anyone says the gap isn't as big as some try to make it out to be. As some will say that Wentz is way better than Dak and that it is not even close. Some say that Wentz had more natural talent at the QB position. But, it takes more than arm talent to be a long termed franchise QB in the NFL. That can consistently lead a team to the playoffs.

 

[Risen Star]

Wentz is clearly better.

He's also a much better person.

 

[cowboy_ron]

In what, year 4 or 5 Wentz is still hyped because of his draft position and potential instead of actual production on the field. Dak is clutch and loves the pressure of those types of situation.......Wentz is just the opposite.....with the game on the line I'll take Dak over Wentz Everytime.

[erod]

Wentz' offensive line is atrocious. That's causing them huge problems.

But there's apparently locker room issues between him and his teammates. That could get ugly.
